One of the outpatient treatment alternatives for clients in Eben Junction who are battling with opioid abuse and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Some clinics and doctors are authorized to give specific medications to opioid dependent people, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. In low amounts however, the individual does not experience being high and also does not have acute cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this sole purpose, but there are other options to pick from.
Methadone is an opioid and can be taken at an out-patient clinic licensed to administer the drug, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The price of the med is about $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is in pill form often taken every other day. But different from Methadone that is only be dispensed in highly well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The cost monthly of buprenorphine is approximately $300 monthly for the generic version of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains the ingredient naloxone, which is a drug which reverses the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and is priced approximately $450 /month. Naltrexone is an additional drug taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it is an opioid blocker and isn't an opioid. There is an option to take this medication as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents a person from experience high feelings from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 /month.
